Ben Stokes proves once again why he is a superhero in Cricket. He was the sole reason behind a big routing for New Zealand with a commanding 182. Dawid Malan was pretty supportive too and has all but sealed his spot for the World Cup with a pretty solid performance in the top order for England.

ENG vs NZ Key Players

Harry Brook

Harry Brook, touted as a generational talent is likely to miss out on the World Cup having been left out of the squad so England could accommodate Ben Stokes. He still has an outside chance of making it but will have to perform out of his skin to prove that he can be apart of the squad.

Daryl Mitchell

Mitchell loves playing in England and is one of the most consistent batters going around in the New Zealand line-up. His performances matter all the more with Williamson uncertain for the World Cup, leaving New Zealand in a desperate situation with their battign line-up.

Looking at the depth in England’s squad and their coverage, England look very tough to get past.
